So much so Trudeau wants to surtax the banks

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trudeau-targets-big-canadian-banks-204135340.html

(Bloomberg) -- Prime Minister Justin Trudeau took a populist turn in Canada’s election campaign, pledging to impose a 3% surtax on the nation’s big banks and insurers.

At a campaign stop in Vancouver, the leader of the governing Liberals promised to hike the corporate income tax rate by three percentage points on profit over C$1 billion ($793 million) at financial institutions. The measures, which would bring the rate to 18% from 15% currently, are expected to generate C$2.5 billion for government coffers over the next four years, starting in 2022, according to a party news release.

Beef prices have gone up. Actually all food.

No steak for us for a while.

Restaurants have also raised prices.

Looks like everything going up in price

Except doctor and nurses salaries.

Hahaha...

Hahaha...

I just got this message from medical office assistant saying that they sent the bill for filling out insurance claim form to the patient as per normal practice and the husband called back upset saying expensive etc. Ask me whether I can waive.

Actually I have told them before I don't charge. But all the other drs do. So the clinic policy is to charge.

But clearly if you kick a fuss the clinic will ask the dr is he or she can waive.

See? In healthcare it pays to be a fucking rude bastard and fuck the dr and the clinic staff all over. You get what you want.

It was special at Longos.
Before the pandemic, Certified Angus AAA striploin was $10 to $12 a pound. And last year, it was $14 a pound.
Very rarely, do I buy it at more than $12 a pound

$8.98/lb. Only AA grade

 

[nayr69sg]

$8.98/lb i still find expensive.

And my family prefers top sirloin. So suits me fine for cheaper option

$5.99/lb but only Grade AA

Caught another squirrel in my garden!

Will drive it across the bow river and let it out at the park there.

These guys otherwise will make home on my roof during winter!

Let him go at the park. Many squirrels in the park. See one in background

Fall is coming.

Can You Tame Squirrels?​

Yes. If you’re really dedicated, taming squirrels is fairly simple. Having patience and letting them get used to requires a lot of waiting around, but once they do they’ll be happy to approach.

Most people who do tame wild squirrels on their property will do it by placing food nearby and then simply waiting, allowing the squirrels to approach without startling them, then gradually moving the food closer until they can hand feed the animals.

Once a squirrel is used to you, it will happily approach expecting food, and the behavior might encourage others to do the same. Some people will even willingly allow squirrels into their home once they’re tame.

Should You Tame Squirrels?​

Of course, the real question here isn’t whether it’s possible to tame squirrels, but whether you really should. Is it better to get them used to you, rather than call in professional squirrel removal services? Unfortunately, probably not.

As cute as they might be, squirrels can cause a lot of problems. The more comfortable they feel around you, the more welcome they’ll feel around and in your home – especially if you’re inviting them there! This makes them far more likely to find a hidden space like your attic to nest. This also means they’ll start chewing on pipes, wires, boards, ducts and much more, causing property damage and potential fire hazards.

This is not to mention that they, like many wild animals, carry a lot of parasites and potential diseases. This is bad enough if you’re hand-feeding or handling them, but having them in your home means they’ll be leaving waste wherever they go.

The practicalities of damage and disease are bad enough, but by taming squirrels, you’re also potentially harming them, too. Relying on people for food can harm a squirrel’s ability to continue to survive in the wild, and also changes their perception of humans, seeing them as less of a threat and putting them at risk.

Providing food in the squirrel feeder is one thing, but taming them and having them come to you for food is ultimately detrimental to their survival.

I have no desire to have squirrels live in my roof and gutters.
